Five MSc research projects have been awarded £500 each by the annual MSc Research Grant Scheme funded by the Institution's Research Fund.

The MSc research grants scheme sponsors postgraduate research projects carried out as part of a full or part-time MSc degree programme. Every year grants of £500 are available for the best project ideas, plus an additional £500 is presented to the best report and poster.

Grants up to a maximum of £500 will be awarded: £200 of which will be awarded to the student and up to £300 of which will be awarded to the university to cover project costs (e.g. equipment, consumables, software licences etc). A breakdown of costs must be provided as part of the application. Grants are paid on commencement of the project.
